Inclusive Photography

Before taking photography full time, I spent almost a decade as a social worker, foster care specialist & early intervention autism therapist for families and kiddos in Richmond, Virginia. My specific training and experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds allows me to bring that extra *something* to all of your photoshoots! Have someone in your family with particular behavioral, developmental or medical needs? That communicates in different ways? That may struggle with new people? Following directions? New environments? - I AM YOUR GIRL! I pride myself in making potentially agitating experiences fun, easy & comfortable for the whole family! Have someone in your family that hates getting pictures done? An angsty teenager? Grumpy spouse? Shy grandparent? - I AM ALSO YOUR GIRL! Years of interacting with families and kids in stressful situations has given me the tools (and personality) to put all your loved ones at ease & even get some good smiles from them! I'd love to chat with you about what accommodations or extra preparation I can provide to help make your photoshoot a positive experience for everyone. 📸🧩❤️
